Landing page captured for the 2026-08-28 issue.

Field notes

The site organizes records around individual boats and supports lookup by hull identification number, name, builder, model, engine, drive, or race number. Contributions may include photographs, sightings, repairs, ownership context, race history, and sale information, with the site stating that moderators review public submissions. The homepage also exposes a small market-history layer: one active listing is shown at $189,000 in Sarasota, while two other entries are marked active or sold with dates and submitter types.
